Julia's pov.

My eyelids fluttered open, my blurry vision gradually becoming clear. I looked around, noticing that I was in my room. How did I get here? Was it all a dream?

“Oh, you're finally awake.” Mother entered the room, her eyes filled with worry. She walked over to the bed where I was laying and placed her palm on my head.

“You don't have a fever anymore, what happened to you?”

“How did I get here?”

“Oh, your brother was in another car behind the Alpha when you collapsed. So the Alpha handed you over to him and he brought you home. They were on their way to get our future Luna's parents for the engagement party tonight.” My mother explained.

It must have been embarrassing to fall on the Alpha's chest. I never expected to meet him twice in one day and both in awkward situations! I don't even know how to face him ever again, I don't think I ever will.

After what Dylan has done to me, I don't think there's anything that would take me back to the pack house, I don't want to run into any of them.

“Julia, are you sure you're okay?” Mother asked again, probably noticing my foul mood. I nodded my head with a smile, trying to convince her that I was alright.

I don't even have the heart to let her know what happened. I can't bring myself to tell her how Dylan broke my heart a day to our formal introduction. I was hurt. Thinking about it hurts a lot.

“Then why did you fall unconscious?”

“I'm probably stressed out mom, you know how much I worked last week.” I lied, trying to cover up. I had followed Alex to do his work last week and it was a hectic week.

“I told you to get some rest, but you didn't listen.” She frowned.

“I'm fine mom.” I sighed.

“Where is Alex?” I questioned.

“He went to get your cake.” Her face suddenly lit up. I was confused for a second and then it dawned on me.. it's my birthday!

How is it my birthday? Was I really unconscious the whole night?

“Happy eighteenth birthday my dear.” Mother put her arms around me immediately, embracing me tightly.

“Thank you mom.”

“Where's the birthday girl!?” Alex's voice chimed as he burst through the door, holding the beautiful, pink birthday cake in his hands.

They both started to sing happy birthday to me in unison, presenting the cake to me, along with a bunch of gifts they had gotten me. I was moved to tears.

My family didn't have a lot of money but they always went out of their way to make me happy.

We ate the cake, laughing and having a good time together until mom had to go after getting a call. She was a midwife, and had been called to deliver a baby for one of the pack members.

Her job as a midwife didn't pay much, but she continued to do it because she loved it. I wish I could be as passionate as my mother or my brother, but I don't even know what to do with my life at the moment. I gave a whole year of my life to that cheat, Dylan and now he has ruined me.

“Are you strong enough to help me with some work?” Alex asked after mother left for her work.

“What work?”

“I have to deliver a bunch of things for the Alpha's engagement to the pack house. I would have gone alone but I need some help picking the right things and you have an eye for pretty things.” He explained but my heart skipped.

I don't want to go back to the pack house, I don't want to run into Dylan, or anyone for that matter. I wanted to stay as far away from everyone as possible.

“But Alex.. I don't think I can.” I bit my lip.

“Please Julia.” He pleaded, giving me puppy dog eyes which he knew I couldn't resist.

“Fine, but on one condition.. After helping you pick out the things you need, I won't go into the pack house to deliver them. You'll have to go in alone.”

“Why? Are you afraid of anything?” He almost chuckled. I glared at him and shook my head.

“I just.. I just want to stay in the car and wait for you. I'm not strong enough to carry anything in with you.” I lied.

Alex would be disappointed to find out what happened to Dylan, I don't think I can tell him yet.

“Fine, I accept. Now let's go.”

I got dressed and followed Alex to the car. We got to the store and picked up the items for the engagement before driving to the pack house where the engagement was about to begin. I still wonder why the Alpha would settle for someone like Selena.

Alex and the maids had to hurry up and put everything in place while I waited in the car, refusing to step out.

An hour later, I was still sitting in the car and waiting for Alex to return when I felt a sudden surge of energy within me. I jolted from my position, confused about what just happened.

I tried to ignore it but it continued, getting me more and more restless. A sweet scent filled my nostrils, it got heavier and heavier, it smelled like the forest after rain, it was addictive. I tried to ignore it but my body did not agree with me.

I pushed the door open, sauntering out of the car. I sniffed the air, my feet moving towards the scent. I found myself inside the crowded pack house, everyone had gathered for the Alpha's engagement, but even my fear of large crowds did not stop me from fighting my way through them in search of the owner of the scent.

The closer I got, the more my heart raced and sweat trickled down my face. I stumbled and almost fell, rushing to the front like my life depended on it. I felt like I was going to die if I didn't find that scent.

By the time I made my way to the front, the Alpha was about to exchange rings with Selena. I found myself fighting the guards to get to him.

“What's going on!?” The queen mother yelled out, turning everyone's attention to me.

Alpha Kane stopped and turned, so did Selena. They all looked perplexed but their glares were the least of my worries at that moment.

My wolf growled inside of me as I stared helplessly at Alpha Kane. He's the owner of the scent.

My wolf snarled hungrily, “Mate!”

    Julia's pov.Alpha Kane growled at me, rendering me weak all of a sudden. I fell on my knees, unable to keep my head up. I could feel everyone's glares on me, I knew they all hated me at that moment. But none of this is my fault, I never meant for this to happen.If I could take it all back, I would. Being mated to the big, bad Alpha is not something I intended to happen.“What the hell is this!? What's going on!?” Selena was the first to speak, and she was not happy at all. I remained with my head lowered in front of them, unable to even look up.“Tell me this isn't true, Alpha Kane.” She sobbed.“Kane! Is this true? Is she saying the truth? Is she your mate?” The queen mother bombarded her son with questions while I wept silently.Alpha Kane would never want anything to do with me, he would never call off his engagement with Selena, the daughter of an Alpha, to be with me.What scares me the most, is the fact that I would lose my life if the Alpha decides to reject me.

Accept her and brew a storm? I couldn't take that chance, most definitely not at my engagement party.“Alpha Kane, what is the meaning of this? Who was that lying dork? And why is she claiming you to be her mate?” Alpha Hudgens yelled, his voice booming aloud. “Forget about it, Alpha Hudgens; it was nothing but an empty commotion,” I replied.“Empty commotion? That was not an empty commotion. That lady claimed to be your mate, are we supposed to believe that? “I don't even know who she is. She could be an actor from another pack, trying to put asunder in this alliance.” I tried to explain in the best way possible while still keeping my boiling anger at bay.“It better be Alpha Kane, if you lie to me and my family, then this alliance is off.”I gritted my teeth, my gaze scanning the room; I need to talk to t

    Julia’s pov“Julia, please come down for breakfast,” I heard my mom call for the umpteenth time, but I refused to heed. What if she's just trying to deceive me? What if Alpha Kane is out there and it's just a silly trap to lure me out? If I ever find myself in his presence, he would reject me and I would lose my life. There's no stopping that. No, I will remain here, away from the world, under my cozy bed sheets.“Julia, please my dear, open up. You have refused to have your meals for the past 12 hours. Just open up. You don’t have to step out, I will bring it to you. How does that sound?” “Just leave me alone, Mom, please,” I said and buried my head under my pillow, trying to block out her voice. I can't step out into the outside world; why doesn't she understand that? Does she want me dead?“Julia, it's Alex. Look I know you are scared, but it's not the end of the world. I promise you, Alpha Kane will have to go through me first before he could hurt you. He's not here so come on

    Kane's povI paced back and forth in my office, my thoughts in disarray, replaying yesterday’s events over and over. How the hell did I end up in that situation? What was I thinking, going to her place? I didn’t expect… didn’t want to see what I saw. But the moment that door swung open, and she stood there—bare, vulnerable, and so utterly beautiful—everything shifted.Her body was imprinted in my mind, as clear as if she were standing in front of me now. The smoothness of her skin, the way her curves flowed together perfectly, her delicate, perfectly shaped breasts, the slight dip of her waist blending into her hips… God, she was like something out of a dream. I fought—really fought—not to lose control in that moment. I had to summon every ounce of willpower I possessed just to wrap that towel around her, shield my eyes, and back away. It wasn’t just about her body—it was everything about her. The way she looked at me, the softness of her lips, her scent that lingered in the air, pu

Does he think he can discard me like a worn-out garment and lavish his attention on that wretched woman? The very thought sent my anger simmering, threatening to boil over.I marched towards my room, slamming the door shut behind me. I needed solitude, a sanctuary to gather my thoughts and devise a plan. Kane underestimated me, thinking I'd meekly accept my fate. Never! Not while I still drew breath.My mind raced with scenarios, each one more treacherous than the last. How could I stop this? How could I prevent that woman from usurping my position? A litany of dark desires scrolled through my mind, but killing her would be too easy, too merciful. Kane would be affected by her death, and that wouldn't serve my purpose.Gosh, right now, I hate the Goddess; she's the cause of all these. “Selena.” I recognized the voice belonging to Fiona, K

    Julia’s povMom, Alex, and I sat in the living room, a deafening silence lingering like a second skin. None of us had spoken a word since he informed us of what Alpha Kane said. He had instructed us not to tell anyone as requested by the Alpha. I was scared that all of it might just be a ploy, his presence here, the kiss, and now the deal. What if he was just trying to impress my family, and then when he's finally done with me, they won't have a say because he had deceived them into thinking he is kind? The man is a beast, a ruthless businessman; Alex striking this deal with him is a big mistake.“Aren't you both going to say anything?” Alex finally broke the uncomfortable silence. “What's there to be said? You have done what you dimmed fine, why ask about our opinion? Will it change the fact that you are endangering your sister's life?” Mom barked, the hurt in her voice could not be ignored. I was equally angry, but I didn't want my family to split up because of some silly issues

When my being was being tormented by the things that happened here.*Mate.*Images of Alpha Kane and Selena on that podium about to be engaged flashed before my eyes, the stoic expression on his face. The hateful gazes. Everything. I shot my eyes, my heartbeat reaching my ears in loud thuds. “Come on out, Miss Thompson.” My eyes opened and met the nonchalant gaze of the warrior.He opened the door, while I fought hard to ward off the numbness settling in my leg and step out. And I did, but my legs felt like jello, and I found myself falling. Thankfully, I didn't meet the ground, not with something tugging on my hand.I slowly regained my feet and turned to see who saved me. “Hi.” A woman greeted me; she seemed to be around the age of 30. I could tell from her looks, but her beauty could be compared to that of a 19-year-old. Her jet-black hair was tied in

There's a stranger in our house. My eyes flew open and I swiftly sat on my bed. Who the heck is the imposter?“Good…Morning, Miss Julia.” My eyes caught sight of the lady from yesterday and everything came crashing down on me.“Are you alright, Miss Julia? You seem shaken.”“I am fine,” I replied, relaxing my back against the wall where the bed rested.“I am sorry if I startled you. Just that you have been in bed for quite a while and I thought you might be needing my assistance to wake up.” I stared at her with a raised brow, not understanding what she meant by assistant. I am pretty sure I always wake up fine, well except when my mother tries to wake me up early, mostly for school.Then it suddenly occurred to me how she knew I had trouble waking up on my own. “Mom.” I gasped crawling out of the bed. “My mo

    AUTHOR'S POV The night outside the Pack House was quiet, the air heavy with the chill of winter. Inside, however, the atmosphere was anything but calm. Dylan had arrived.He wasn’t early, nor was he particularly late—it didn’t matter. The coronation tomorrow had officially crowned him Alpha, and his presence here was merely to solidify his claim. He strode through the grand halls, his dark hair slightly disheveled but his expression sharp and composed. The entourage behind him moved silently, their loyalty unquestionable.The maids had scrambled at his arrival, wide-eyed as they led him through the labyrinth of corridors. Their hushed whispers followed him like a shadow. “The new Alpha,” they murmured. “He doesn’t even look like he belongs here.” Dylan caught snippets of their chatter but paid it no mind. He’d been underestimated before.His boots clicked softly against the polished floors as they guided him to his chambers—Kane’s chambers. He paused in the doorway, his green eyes sc

    AUTHOR’S POVJulia killed the engine, her hands gripping the wheel a moment longer than necessary. The palace rose before them like a ghost in the moonlight—cold, unfeeling, and absolutely massive. The air carried a chill that crept beneath her skin, but it wasn’t the temperature that set her nerves alight.Beside her, Alex adjusted his leather jacket, his movements sharp and impatient. He glanced at her, his jaw tightening like he was holding back a comment. Casey, lounging in the back seat, let out an exaggerated sigh and popped her gum.“So, what’s the grand plan, Jules?” Casey asked, her tone dripping with mockery. “We storm the gates, guns blazing? Or is this a sneak-and-pray situation?”Julia shot her a look over her shoulder, her green eyes sharp. “You’re the distraction, smartass.”Casey grinned, slow and wicked. “Distraction? Oh, honey, that’s my specialty.”“Good,” Alex cut in, his voice low and steady. “Just keep him busy. Jules and I will handle the rest.”Casey slid out o

    After Harry had been pushed to the sidelines, the elders wasted no time getting to work. The air around the pack shifted as they dived into the logistics of making Dylan alpha. Paperwork stacked high, rituals were rehearsed, and every detail of the upcoming ceremony was put into motion. For them, this was tradition, structure, order. For Harry, it was betrayal, but no one seemed to care about that.Meanwhile, the world outside spun on. Julia, still in the hospital, was beginning to piece her memory back together. Slowly, but surely. She could barely speak—her words stuck like thorns in her throat—but there was progress. Her body might’ve been healing, but her spirit? That was another story entirely.Grant, Cassius, and Dylan, however, seemed to have no trouble moving forward. They were out at Grant’s mansion, living it up like kings. The finest liquor, the rarest meats, the most exclusive guest list. It was a celebration disguised as camaraderie, and no expense was spared.Among the g

    Harry's POV.Seamless—that’s the word. That’s how it felt watching Levi, cornered like a rat in a burning maze. His pack, the once-feared Black Fang, was already in ruins. Overrun. Overwhelmed. Women, men, children—slaughtered because of his arrogance. Screams echoed through the flames as his mistakes came back to haunt him, clawing at his heels like rabid wolves.Levi. Pathetic Levi. The coward who thought he could stand tall after killing Kane. That arrogant son of a bitch actually believed he could wear his sins like armor, raise his kids, and play alpha after murdering the most revered wolf among us. I couldn’t stomach it. The sight of him—shaking, sweating, eyes darting like a trapped animal—made my stomach churn.I spat on him. Right in his face. “You made your choice,” I said, my voice as cold as the night air. “You chose wrong. Wrong man. Wrong time. Wrong everything.”His lips trembled. His eyes—those damn eyes—tried to plead, but there was nothing left to bargain with. "I—I

    Dylan's POV. A man’s dream is always the same—to be the best. To walk into a room and own it without saying a word. And me? I’m this close to becoming the Alpha of the entire pack. Let that sink in. Do you know what that means?I’d own shares in every damn company the pack has its claws in. Lands? All mine. Territories? Mine. I’d have warriors—over a hundred of them—at my beck and call. And the pack house? That place isn’t just some fancy mansion. It’s a fortress. A vault of secrets no one talks about but everyone fears. I’d have the kind of power that makes people stand when I walk in, that gets governments to pick up the phone when I call. And the cherry on top? The psychic connection to my wolves. That’s not just power; it’s omnipresence.This isn’t just a dream—it’s the dream.I sat in my chamber, the air thick with the scent of wood polish and leather, sipping tea that was just shy of boiling. The kind of tea that warms your chest but has enough kick to remind you it’s not playi

    Harry's POV The pack was a mess, everyone barking orders, sharpening claws, and gearing up to take down the Black Fang. And while they were busy growling and hyping each other up, I had my own mission. One that didn’t involve fangs or blood.Julia.I didn’t care what she was doing or who she was doing it with. Whether she was wrapped up with Dylan, painting her nails, or binge-watching reality TV, none of it mattered. I needed to see her. Face to face. I had to tell her the guy she swore she loved was gone. Dead. And it had to come from me.It was early as hell when I hit the road. Too early for anything sane, but hey, life doesn’t wait for you to get a good night’s sleep. The air was cold, my car heater barely keeping up, and the roads were so quiet it felt like the world hadn’t woken up yet.Her family house looked exactly how I remembered—clean, calm, and way to put-together. It was the kind of place where the neighbors probably judged each other on lawn care and holiday decoratio

    Harry's POV Kane’s remains were brought back to the pack in silence. It wasn’t just quiet—it was heavy. Like the kind of quiet that settles in right before a storm breaks loose. No one said a word, and no one dared to look me in the eye. They all knew better.As for the rogues? Their corpses were nothing but ash by the time we left that warehouse. I made damn sure of it. They didn’t deserve a trace left behind—not even the memory of what they were.When we got to the pack house, I was already on edge. My body was running on fumes, the adrenaline long gone, but the rage? That wasn’t going anywhere. The second I stepped through the front door, I let it out.“Out. All of you. Now.”The servants scattered like leaves in the wind. I didn’t care how late it was or that some of them had probably been sleeping. Their wide eyes and quick feet told me they got the message loud and clear. I needed space. I needed silence.I needed to think.Kane was supposed to come back to us alive. I’d spent

    David's POV.Larkmart Warehouse was a few rides away, and yeah, I’d called for backup. Had to. Let’s be real—this whole “spiritual intervention” stuff? It’s not my thing. I like practical things. Tangible. Something I can see, touch, or at least punch if it gets messy.When the spiritual leader—an old guy with robes that looked like he raided a thrift store and a voice like he smoked one too many cigars—did his thing, I wasn’t impressed. I sat there, arms crossed, watching with what I can only describe as professional skepticism. Cassius, though? He was eating it up. Nodding along like the guy was reciting holy scripture.Cassius isn’t just old; he’s ancient. He’s got this air about him, like he’s forgotten more about the supernatural world than the rest of us will ever know. And he’s respected, which is why I put up with his belief in spirits and rituals and all that. I don’t share the belief, but I wasn’t about to say it to his face. Not outright.Because here’s the thing: I might b

    Cassius' POV. The road ahead was dark, nothing but the hum of the engine and the faint glow of my headlights cutting through the night. Levi, being Levi, decided he needed to ride with me. He didn’t ask—he just opened the door, slid into the passenger seat, and stretched out like he owned the damn car.“So, what’s the plan?” he asked, leaning back and propping his boots on the dash.I shot him a look. “Get your feet off.”He smirked but obeyed, shifting to sit up straight. “We going back to the pack?”“Not yet,” I said, keeping my eyes on the road. “We need to lay low first.”Levi frowned, leaning toward me like he didn’t hear me right. “Lay low? For what?”I glanced at him like he’d just asked the dumbest question in the world. Which he had. “You seriously think the cops aren’t going to be crawling all over this by morning? We just leveled a warehouse and left bodies in our wake. Heading straight home is asking for trouble.”He scratched his jaw, chewing that over. “Alright, fair. W
